Chapter 362: Guess about [Desolation] and Raz's Records
Chapter 362 Speculations on [Desolation] and Raz’s records
The angle of Johnny Mogwen's throw was not very precise. After Chen Yan was thrown out of the darkness under the chimney, he hit the iron escalator on the inner wall of the chimney, and almost stabbed himself through the tears in his hands.
Heartbroken.
Perhaps it was because his body had been changed due to his transcendence, so the impact was not as painful as Chen Yan expected, but it was inevitable that his head would be filled with a ball of mush, and stars would appear in front of his eyes.
Fortunately, he was really lucky today. When the force that threw him up disappeared, his wildly dancing hands and feet actually caught the escalator and did not fall.
While he was dizzy, he thought wildly:
'This physical quality...has exceeded that of ordinary mortals...it must be the influence of the extraordinary. It seems that the evolution of a certain part of the body will cause changes in physical fitness, but this change cannot be tested, let alone carried out.
Quantify...'
After he left the darkness under the chimney, the howling sounds from under the chimney became quieter.
What Chen Yan didn't expect was that those increasingly quiet voices turned into even more unacceptable gibbering.
Before, he could still tell that they were roars, wailings, cries of pain, etc., but now, countless sounds were mixed together, turning into an indistinguishable low murmur——
An indistinguishable murmur of pain surrounded his ears, as if instructing him to die. At this moment, Chen Yan even had the idea of letting go of the escalator and letting himself fall vertically.
Fortunately, his will was strong enough, and the moment this thought appeared, his subjective will had already destroyed it.
'What the hell!'
Chen Yan was frightened for a while and immediately turned off his spiritual vision.
When the spiritual vision is turned off, the whispering sound surrounding the ears disappears.
He didn't dare to look at the bottom of the chimney anymore. He just grabbed the escalator with one hand, put the tears back into the scabbard on his back with the other hand, and tied the clothes with the Raz records tied around his waist with his backhand.
, after stabilizing his emotions, he started climbing up.
A few minutes later.
With Ogami's help, Chen Yan awkwardly climbed out of the chimney and steadied himself on the snowy roof.
"Ogami, you don't know what I went through down there..."
He told Ogami everything he saw and heard under the chimney.
Ogami looked at his frightened expression and thought:
"In my hometown, the word "deserted" has a strong religious meaning."
His words successfully attracted Chen Yan's attention.
So he organized his language carefully and continued:
"[Desolation] literally means a wilderness that is overgrown with weeds due to no one managing it.
In most cases, desolation is the result of war.
Because people need farming to feed themselves, generally speaking, once the fields become barren, it is because there are fewer people - as long as there are fewer people, something very unfortunate must have happened - in my hometown, as long as there are few people,
It’s because of the war.”
Ogami said in a serious tone:
"Desolation is a god we must fear because people are afraid of war.
Once war breaks out, people will be displaced and unimaginable tragedies will occur.
People will become without a bottom line, human nature will be distorted by hunger, and will be overcome by desires derived from instinct. Because of the desolate and disordered world, people will become something uglier than monsters.
Desolation is something we must fear."
Chen Yan said in a deep voice:
"From this perspective, in the world under the chimney, a war between humans and some unknown creature is taking place."
Ogami nodded:
"Combined with the things you saw, I think it is like this...even if it is not, it is almost the same."
Chen Yan frowned and said:
"But if [Desolation] were a living thing...or a non-living monster, what would it look like?"
Perhaps no one has seen the true appearance of desolation, because according to what "Oleg" Chen Yan heard said, people who have seen desolation may have become desolation itself.
Chen Yan pondered: "If I throw a grenade down, can I blow up this chimney and the passage under the chimney?"
Ogami carefully thought about the feasibility and guessed: "It's probably not possible. Grenades are not extraordinary items and cannot affect extraordinary passages...
If you really throw a grenade in, the result is probably that the building will be blown up, the entrance to the passage will be exposed, and other extraordinary beings will discover it, and then the whole thing will become a mess."
The sudden huge trouble gave Chen Yan a strong subconscious desire to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Subconsciously, he wanted to solve this passage, but he could not help but have other thoughts -
Is there anything of value in the so-called [wilderness]?
William Mast established an outpost in the wilderness simply to protect the zoo?
Is the [unknown knowledge] that exists in the wilderness completely worthless to me?
This must not be the case.
Chen Yan suppressed the fear in his heart, and then thought that his extraordinary ability is "seeing". No matter what kind of unknown knowledge he "sees", he must open his eyes to see the world, so that his ability can be exercised.
But if he doesn't even have the courage to [look], he would be too ridiculous and pitiful to have such extraordinary abilities.
Chen Yan understood that the road leading to the wilderness in the chimney was his opportunity.
As for how to seize this opportunity - no matter what, you must first understand it and make adequate preparations. Only then can you minimize the risk when you enter the [wilderness] again to explore.
"We don't have a need to go into the wilderness right now, but this chimney is an opportunity for us."
Ogami muttered:
"Is there a way for me to get in? I'm interested in what Johnny Murgwen said about 'We're keeping [death] here.'"
Chen Yan thought:
"The passage between the chimney and the wilderness cabin was opened by the director, and he gave the [key] on the [door] to Raz. Later, Raz gave me the [key] through his last words."
"I'm afraid you can't get in by yourself, but if you come with me, maybe you can get in?"
"It's like: When I usually open the door, as long as you are by my side, you can go in with me?"
Ogami is eager to try:
"Maybe we can do an experiment!"
Chen Yan shook his head repeatedly:
"Now I'm afraid that when the door opens, a large group of [Desolation] will be waiting for me behind the door... I'd better wait, no matter what, I have to wait until after today, and then I'll go down with you to find out."
Ogami also feels that this method is the safest.
The two of them went downstairs with Raz's records, and happened to meet Nuomiguo who had just woken up.
After hearing what happened to Chen Yan this morning, Nuomiguo expressed great surprise and curiosity, and joined the team that sorted out Raz's remaining records.
So the three of them worked together to arrange Raz's remaining records on the attic floor in chronological order.
Most of Raz's records are unorganized, just in the form of a diary, loosely recording the things that happened around him in a day.
But once she encounters something she doesn't understand, she will look up information or ask other people, and then write down the relevant things and explanations in separate records——
This good habit greatly speeds up the three people's classification of records.
Even so, after nearly an hour passed, there was still a large part of the records that had not been sorted out and were still scattered papers.
These precious records were so consumed by the hunters in the wilderness cabin that they were completely out of order. Most of them were cut off from the middle of the records, and only a few of them were records of complete events.
Logically speaking, these records should be useless waste when they are in such a dilapidated state.
But Chen Yan not only discovered the history of the development of the supernatural power of Yanan City, but also saw the reproduction process of several different Asian races, and even Raz's description of the early Byron Weiss Zoo and the Central Park of Yanan City.
The things she records are very complex and detailed. She almost remembers everything she sees, from breakfast to dinner every day. She occasionally discovers new clothes on the market, their texture and craftsmanship, and new storage items in the tavern.
Liquor equipment, the shape changes of guns carried by people on their waists...
Although this recording method makes it more difficult to organize records, it also greatly enriches the content of the records.
Chen Yan looked through some records of the same era in succession, and he could almost picture what those eras were like in his mind.
What a priceless treasure!
"In fact, there is no need for us to be disappointed because of the incompleteness of these records."
Nuomiguo was full of energy, and a rare rosiness appeared on his originally slightly pale face:
"Because the things she recorded are very complex and often repeated, we can guess to a certain extent what is recorded in the missing part of the record... Although the guess is not accurate, it is still possible to guess!"
She grabbed those records and was happy for a long time before she calmed down and said:
"These notes are Raz's personal records after all.
As long as they are personal records, they are subjective and cannot be treated as true historical materials."
"But at the same time, there are also quite a few objective records in these records.
That is truly valuable knowledge.”
"We only need to pay attention to objective records that are not contaminated by personal subjective emotions. When we encounter relevant things, compare the situation back then with the current situation and confirm each other, and we can easily see the mystery!"
As a scholar, these records should be quite valuable to Nuomi Guo.
"I'm going to live here and study and repair these records."
After receiving Nuomiguo's serious request, Chen Yan decided to erect stairs between the third floor and the attic, so that there would be no need to move scaffolding every time he went to the attic.
Chapter completed!
